This summer has been considerably cooler than the past 4-5 years. I think we've had fewer than 5 days over 70F so far...and MAYBE one day over 80F.
I am NOT complaining...I like the cooler weather.

Same here, definitely cooler. But the precipitation and dew points have been higher than usual - that's worse than warmer and dryer IMHO.

it's been cool for the last 3 days and a bit rainy.

Last month we had 2 F0 tornadoes hit our region with minimal damage.

Saw a tiny Praying Mantis climbing the wall next to my door. Dumb of it to do that on a white wall. I thought it wasn't supposed to move out in the open like that. Must have been the heat (lobby is air conditioned).

Here on the space coast; down the street from Elmo's rocket ride, and Jeff's penis extension, we have been near or maybe even hitting records lately. Imma still hit the heavy bag in the backyard this afternoon. If I gork or RIP @VirtualLarry @blckgrffn @Pohemi @igor_kavinski can divvy up my stuff.

I use the misting setting on the garden hose in conjunction. Living here my whole life, you acclimate to whatever extent is humanly possible. I typically leave 2.5 kg of water weight out there.

An hour from the Canadian border in MN helping a great-amazing-brother-friend demo an island cabin deck, it’s 57 this morning and the highs might touch 70.
Sounds like heaven right now...

18C with risk of thunderstorm.

It seems our intense heat has slowed down. Now it's mostly rain with the odd dry day. They even lifted the fire ban recently.
We're basically half way through summer already, and I hardly got anything done, really need to boot it. I kind of got screwed since it poured rain on both of my vacation weeks. I have another coming in August hopefully it will be better.

we keep getting rain and thunderstorms. Temps have been below normal for the last 2 weeks here.
Minnesota here. We had an almost record snowy winter, but how drought and have had a summers worth of 90 degree days already. Smoke from the Canadian Wildfires is back, giving poor air quality.

Been getting wrecked for a while now. Today is going to be our sixth straight day of 104F+, but we make up for the heat by also being humid in South Texas. Last month we had a stretch of four days where we broke the record for highest heat index ever recorded in the city three times. One day my heat index was freaking 125. Got at least another week of 102F+ forecast. Texas blows.
